Former Watergate prosecutor Jill Wine-Banks appeared on MSNBC yesterday with a blunt assessment of Trump's chances in the Mar-A-Lago classified documents case.
“The case is so strong. You cannot imagine his getting away with this. I’m wearing a toast pin today because I think he’s toast," she said.
She was reacting to reports that the feds now have audio recordings of the Mango Man admitting he had classified documents in his possession -- and that he couldn't declassify them now that he was out of office. She said she assumed the grand jury already heard the recording.
“There’s nothing as compelling as hearing a defendant in a criminal case say words that show his criminality. And these words certainly show that he knew that he hadn’t declassified documents that he still retained,” she said.
She said he could lie, but she doubts the jury will believe him.
